I probably say this about a lot of your textures, but this one is really pretty! <3 I love the blue and how there is a little touch of orange. Using a predominately blue with accented orange colour scheme really works well with the design of this texture.
How do you get your textures to be so high in quality and resolusion? I have been wondering for a while.

Thank you so much for the feedback, I greatly appreciate it.
So the quality and resolution of the stock stands and falls with the quality and resolution of the photos I use to make them. I mainly use my own material, for that I go out with my Canon EOS 700D and take the best possible pictures of interesting surfaces. The bokeh/lights I sometimes use are from my boyfriend. He makes them with a macro lense (which I don't have yet), so I can't make my own bokeh photos.

I thought, like you said, the quality of the pictures you take determined that, but I wasn't completely sure--I don't have a camera myself, but I did use a digital one in the AP art class I took last year. I noticed when I used it to take photos of my own work to submit, that when I connected the camera and transfered the pictures to the computer, and then viewed the pictures, they were really large and clear. Is there a reason why that happens or is it something that the camera kinda automatically does?
That is REALLY cool that a lense makes the bokeh texture. I thought it was something that could be done in Photoshop or something like that.
Thanks for answering!

Well, you could say it's the job of a good camera to make nice and sharp pictures. The resolution can be chosen in the camera settings, but for resources the unspoken rule is "the bigger the better".
A macro lense basically allows you to get really close to an object and focus on a specific part of it. Now bokehs are made by choosing a motive that reflects light by sparkeling. Now, instead of focusing on the sparcles, you take the focus away and that will result in bokehs 
I don't know if that made any sense to you?
What I can tell you is that I have been working some cell phone pictures into my resources as well. Sometimes I don't have your camera with me but pass a cool texture, then I take some cell phone pictures.

I've noticed that unspoken rule.
AWESOME! I didn't realize that was how it's done. That's really cool!
You explained everything well. I am ALWAYS up for learning something new.
